A little bush maid mary grant bruce6/22/2023 When I saw it on this site, I estimated that it had probably been a good 16 years since I’d read a Billabong novel. As with a lot of things though, I eventually moved on – began reading more adult novels and left ones like these behind. I read through them swiftly and re-borrowed them a lot over the next couple of years. I was first introduced to them by a friend of mine (the same friend responsible for introducing me to the Obernewtyn Chronicles) when I was about 10 or 11 and when we moved to a new city in 1993, I discovered that the library there possessed all of the series. They upload free copies of novels out of copyright (in a variety of formats) and skimming through I found and downloaded about 8 or so for my Kindle – some older Victorian classics that I haven’t read and also some former childhood favourites such as two of the Anne novels by L.M Montgomery, and this novel, A Little Bush Maid, by Mary Grant Bruce.Ī Little Bush Maid is the first novel of the Billabong series, which spans 15 novels published between 19. Not so long ago, Marg from Adventures of an Intrepid Reader mentioned an eBook site on Twitter which I didn’t know about so I had a little bit of a look. This year I have a different challenge, so I will be reviewing anything I’m re-reading that I haven’t already talked about here. Last year I didn’t review re-reads as my reason for starting the blog was to read and review books I hadn’t read before.
